Filter by:In order to learn more about follicular lymphoma and anti-cancer vaccines, we are collecting samples from people with this diagnosis. We then hope to make a vaccine from this tissue to help the immune system destroy cancer cells. We plan on keeping samples in the tissue bank indefinitely.
This 2-arm study was designed to compare the efficacy and safety of bevacizumab (Avastin) in combination with rituximab (MabThera) and CHOP (cyclophosphamide, hydroxydaunorubicin [doxorubicin], Oncovin [vincristine], prednisone) chemotherapy (R-CHOP) versus rituximab plus CHOP chemotherapy (R-CHOP) in previously untreated patients with CD20-positive diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). Patients were randomized to receive 8 cycles of treatment with R-CHOP plus bevacizumab or R-CHOP plus placebo. Treatment with bevacizumab/placebo and R-CHOP was given either on a 2-week or 3-week schedule and bevacizumab was given at a weekly average dose of 5 mg/kg (10 mg/kg for 2-week cycles and 15 mg/kg for 3-week cycles).
The purpose of this study is to determine if double autologous then allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplant may offer an improved treatment option for patients with relapsed diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) who are not likely to be cured by the conventional transplantation regimen.
To evaluate the safety and efficacy of lenalidomide (Revlimid ®) in combination with dexamethasone in subjects with relapsed or refractory diffuse large B-cell lymphoma.
Main objective: - To evaluate the applicability of the treatment: 1. To evaluate the treatment toxicity according to the Common Terminology Criteria (CTC) version 3.0 of the National Cancer Institute (NCI). 2. To evaluate opportunistic and non-opportunistic infections after 6 cycles of treatment with rituximab plus cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin, vincristine, and prednisone (R-CHOP) administered every 14 days and highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) in patients with diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and HIV infection. 3. To evaluate the adherence to the treatment with 6 cycles of R-CHOP considering the delays in the administration of the cycles and the reductions in the doses of chemotherapy (planned dose administered in predicted term). Secondary objectives: - To evaluate the efficacy of the treatment in patients with DLBCL and HIV infection after 6 cycles of treatment with R-CHOP administered every 14 days (R-CHOP/14): 1. To determine the global response and complete remission tax. 2. To evaluate the duration of the response. 3. To evaluate the probability of event-free survival in 5 years. 4. To evaluate the probability of global survival in 5 years. - To identify predictive factors of response after 6 cycles of treatment with R-CHOP administered every 14 days in patients with DLBCL and HIV infection. - To evaluate the impact of the therapeutic combination of R-CHOP and HAART in the parameters of the HIV infection (HIV viral load and CD4+ lymphocyte count).
RATIONALE: Monoclonal antibodies, such as rituximab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Combinations of biological substances in denileukin diftitox may be able to carry cancer-killing substances directly to cancer cells. Giving rituximab together with denileukin diftitox may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving rituximab together with denileukin diftitox works in treating patients with previously untreated stage III or stage IV follicular B-cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma.
This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of bevacizumab and cediranib maleate in treating patients with metastatic or unresectable solid tumor, lymphoma, intracranial glioblastoma, gliosarcoma or anaplastic astrocytoma. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or carry cancer-killing substances to them. Cediranib maleate may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Bevacizumab and cediranib maleate may also stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking blood flow to the cancer. Giving bevacizumab together with cediranib maleate may kill more cancer cells.
The aim of this study is to determine the safety, tolerability and dose-limiting toxicities of KW-2478 and to determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose and recommended Phase II dose for patients with relapsed/refractory MM, CLL or B-cell NHL.
The primary goal of this study is to determine the effects (good and bad) of Granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) in combination with Cytoxan, Adriamycin, Vincristine, Prednisone, Rituximab (CHOP-R) on diffuse Large B cell Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (DLBCL). The standard of care for DLBCL is the combination of drugs known as CHOP-Rituximab (CHOP-R). The drugs that make up CHOP-R are the chemotherapy drugs cyclophosphamide, doxorubicin and vincristine, prednisone and rituximab. GM-CSF is a drug that stimulates the immune system by increasing the numbers of white blood cells. Previous research has shown that GM-CSF might help rituximab to be more effective in treating lymphoma.
Patients: B-cell lymphoma, refractory, diffuse, nodular, mantle, other Phase I : Two groups of 6 patients, escalating dose tolerability- 28 days Phase II: Three groups of 16 patients (nodular, diffuse large cell, mantle cell plus others). Oral bid dosing with highest tolerable dose until toxicity, progression, or withdrawal
